    Philips 47PFS7509/12 LCD TV problem

    Hi

    I have here a Philips 47PFS7509/12 LCD TV which came to me with a weird problem : without signal i could access menu, make a factory reset, access menus, etc.
    When i applied cable signal to check image, i had normal picture, but TV was restarting.
    I downloaded original firmware and applied the update, but the problem remained.
    From a colleague i received a "factory package software" which is a lot bigger.
    I made another firmware update, but still did not solve the problem.
    Somewhere on the way the error got worse, because at the moment the TV does not boot to menu, i get the Philips logo and stays there forever.
    It is not dead, because i can rewrite the firmware as many times i want, but...
    I noticed one thing. When i power up the TV with the firmware update stick, i get the "Software update in progress" message.
    This goes for only 30 seconds, then TV restarts. Second time the process is much longer, but i think the time differs, i noticed that after 4-7 minutes the TV restarts again, this time to logo, no more "Software update in progress" message.
    I left it even 30 minutes, nothing happens.
    If i power it down and power it up, i can redo the process, but same happens.
    If i remove the USB stick, i get only the logo.
    I think that it is an emmc issue, but any idea is welcome.
    Maybe i could make an RS232 connection to check the boot messages?
    Please share your ideas.

    Thanks in advance.
    Best regards,
    Janos

      Hello
      I was trying cable TV (european standard, RF to tuner), but now i cannot get anywhere, with or without a signal.
      What is also interesting, the TV has a Demo picture. When i selected that, got a nice picture, without restarting the TV.
      Now... only the logo, or the firmware update message.

        Probably not it but won't hurt to try a simple reset. Unplug tv wait 10 minutes-hold power button on tv for 42 seconds-let go-plug tv back in and try it.

          Connect via UART and watch the boot log, most likely the eMMC will die.

              HP officeJet 8012e ... A printer update will be installed to fix this problem
              by Artefil
              Hi,
              One of the partner I'm mostly working with, brought his Officejet 8012e, facing a problem I'm failing finding a solution.
              On the Officejet 8012e, there's only one USB connector on the back, for connecting the printer to a computer.
              The screen displays the following message :
              "a problem has occured with one of the printer's critical system files. A printer update will be installed to fix this problem"
              But even if the printer is connected through wifi to the network, nothings happen, and the printer stays idle for days.

              Have you ever...

              LG OLED55B8PLA problem
              by funyy
              Hey there,
              So I got a problem with my LG OLED TV (OLED55B8PLA).

              the problem is that the tv won‘t power on some times, the led stays red and won‘t even blink, just solid red when I try to turn it on. USB devices connected won‘t light up. 1/4 of the screen (left side) shows some green „clouds“ that are getting brighter everytime I turn the tv on and after some tries the tv finally turns on. Sometimes it takes 10 tries and some times 100 or even more tries.

              When the tv is on, everything works fine, hdmi outputs, usb inputs, wifi, bluetooth, etc is working...

              A1708 - Problem With Display - Driving Me Insane
              by Ado02
              I am working on an A1708 MacBook Pro 13 / Mid 2017 with a keyboard problem. I replaced the palmrest and installed a new battery, which is when the fan started.

              When powering on the MacBook, the fan would spin for a few seconds and go off, and nothing would show off on the screen. However, when I disconnected the battery, the laptop would work.

              So, I ordered a new battery, but the problem was the same. I spent hours figuring out the problem, but the logic board eventually stopped working.

              The next step was to order a replacement logic board - but...
